Answer:_______________




 

1)  

 The sum of two numbers is 59. If one number is 26, what is the other number

Answer: 33


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number y.

Given:

    26 + y = 59.

⇒ y = 59 - 26    ( on transposing + 26 becomes - 26 ).

⇒  y = 33.

Hence, the requried number is 33.



2)  

 The sum of two numbers is 54. If one number is 30, what is the other number

Answer: 24


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number x.

Given:

    30 + x = 54.

⇒ x = 54 - 30    ( on transposing + 30 becomes - 30 ).

⇒  x = 24.

Hence, the requried number is 24.



3)  

 The sum of two numbers is 47. If one number is 28, what is the other number

Answer: 19


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number y.

Given:

    28 + y = 47.

⇒ y = 47 - 28    ( on transposing + 28 becomes - 28 ).

⇒  y = 19.

Hence, the requried number is 19.



4)  

 The sum of two numbers is 47. If one number is 21, what is the other number

Answer: 26


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number x.

Given:

    21 + x = 47.

⇒ x = 47 - 21    ( on transposing + 21 becomes - 21 ).

⇒  x = 26.

Hence, the requried number is 26.



5)  

 The sum of two numbers is 51. If one number is 17, what is the other number

Answer: 34


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number x.

Given:

    17 + x = 51.

⇒ x = 51 - 17    ( on transposing + 17 becomes - 17 ).

⇒  x = 34.

Hence, the requried number is 34.



6)  

 The sum of two numbers is 48. If one number is 29, what is the other number

Answer: 19


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number y.

Given:

    29 + y = 48.

⇒ y = 48 - 29    ( on transposing + 29 becomes - 29 ).

⇒  y = 19.

Hence, the requried number is 19.



7)  

 The sum of two numbers is 57. If one number is 29, what is the other number

Answer: 28


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number x.

Given:

    29 + x = 57.

⇒ x = 57 - 29    ( on transposing + 29 becomes - 29 ).

⇒  x = 28.

Hence, the requried number is 28.



8)  

 The sum of two numbers is 51. If one number is 26, what is the other number

Answer: 25


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number y.

Given:

    26 + y = 51.

⇒ y = 51 - 26    ( on transposing + 26 becomes - 26 ).

⇒  y = 25.

Hence, the requried number is 25.



9)  

 The sum of two numbers is 54. If one number is 15, what is the other number

Answer: 39


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number x.

Given:

    15 + x = 54.

⇒ x = 54 - 15    ( on transposing + 15 becomes - 15 ).

⇒  x = 39.

Hence, the requried number is 39.



10)  

 The sum of two numbers is 49. If one number is 23, what is the other number

Answer: 26


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the required number y.

Given:

    23 + y = 49.

⇒ y = 49 - 23    ( on transposing + 23 becomes - 23 ).

⇒  y = 26.

Hence, the requried number is 26.
